Density of Solids

The density of a substance refers to how much matter is present in a given amount of space. It is expressed as the ratio of the mass of the substance to its volume.

A straightforward method of finding the density of an object is to measure its mass and then measure its volume by submerging it in a graduated cylinder. What is the density of a 240-g rock 89.0 cm3 of water? (Note that the accuracy and practical applications of this technique are more limited than a variety of others that are based on Archimedes' principle.)

(e) Yet another tube is substituted with a radius 0.100 times the original and half length, and pressure difference is increased by factor of 1.50.
What is density of a woman floats in fresh water with 4.00% of her volume above the surface? (This could be measured by placing her in a Wii marks on the side to measure how much water she displaces when floating and when held under water.) (b) What percent of her volume is above surface when she floats in seawater?
Archimedes' principle can be used to calculate the density of a fluid as well as that of a solid.
